Whitefish Lake is seven miles in length, and the water is glacial water. Whitefish City Beach is near the lake's outflow and a very popular access point to the lake, being near the town. There is a sandy beach, a grassy area with shade, a designated swimming area, gazebos, picnic tables, and a boat dock with a fee to launch. In the summer, you can find kayak rentals, paddle board rentals, and refreshment stands.

Despite this lake's glacier-fed nature, the area gets warm enough for there to be a designated swimming area at this little sandy beach. There's also a shade area, gazebos, picnic tables and docks.
